$1.00 NO-RESERVE7-DAYS ONLY!!HIGH BIDDER TAKES IT!!
Up for auction is a 2006 FORD ESCAPE XLS SUV (4wd - AWD) showing only 201k Original miles. 2.3 Liter 4 cylinder 5 Door SUV. Deep Silver Metallic Exterior Paint on Quartz Grey cloth interior!
We are selling this unit for 7-days only, $1.00 and NO-Reserve. This means at the end of the auction, the high bidder will win this car!!
NO EXCEPTIONS!! We are letting this go for best bid - Absolutely NO-RESERVE!!
Exterior:
The exterior is actually very nice and is shiny and glossy, but does have some issues that we need to divulge. As you can see from the photos, there is some light damage to the passenger side (front bumper), as well there is some door dents, dings, minor scratches, and scuffs on the door panels (we have taken very clear HI-DEFINITION photos so that you can see the damage clearly). The deep silver metallic exterior shines very nicely, and looks as good as you would expect on a 201k mile original vehicle. Looks to have been well kept, and taken good care of, overall since this is a 1-owner vehicle. Even with all the issues mentioned above the paint shines very nicely overall, and has only a few minor surface scratches, scuff, and dings. There may be some random scuffs, scratches, but nothing major that would distract you from bidding / buying this vehicle at ALL!!! To see any damage please look at each photo, as we take over precaution to fully describe our units (see photos). Overall, the paint is at least 7/10. The exterior trim that is so sporty looking shows amazing, and looks great as it should. The chrome accented grill (with FORD Logo) is also in excellent shape, and looks great. Very rare to see a older FORD ESCAPE in a condition that gives you your best chance to own a great SUV, at a great price!
- YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!
The Tires on this vehicle are all P225/ 75/ R15 - The Rear Tires are Matching Cooper Discover H/T's and are in really great shape, and they are in excellent tread shape as I would describe in great shape, with way OVER 60-70% of the tire tread life left. Many miles left to go!
The Front Tires are Matching Cooper Trendsetter SE - and they are in good condition, and are in less good of condition, then the rear tires, but are good enough to get you around for quite a while before you will need to replace them.
Spare appears to still be original, and still underneath vehicle (see photos).
Interior:The interior is in just absolutely amazing shape, the Quartz grey cloth interior shows EXTREMELY well. It's in very good shape with no tears, rips, stains, or holes. The cloth still feels supple and soft, and is very clean, I mean like you would expect from a much lower mileaged model. The interior of this unit is the star of this vehicle. The interior doors and trim inserts are nice as well, and are just very well kept. It appears as though this van has clearly been loved and very well maintained by the former owners who kept it. Ready for the new owners to appreciate the beauty that this vehicle shows. A little cleaning, at best is all the interior needs, but you will be very happy with the interior condition of the vehicle.
The rest of the interior is just as nice, and looks as good as you would expect, based on our description and photos. You will be even more happy when you see it in person. This Escape is a great family, vacation, suburban vehicle, and is ready for what your family brings next. At 201k miles, the vehicle is definitely showing nicer then you would expect, and even the A/C blows ICE COLD. The dash buttons, gauges, lights, etc. all work as they should, and still look like new. A/C Blows nice and cool.
The radio works great, and the sound system is very good, this Ford Escape has been upgraded from Factory Cassette to a Aftermarket CD player with Bluetooth capability. This ESCAPE features options such as but not limited to: Power Locks, Power Windows, Power Rear Ventilation Windows, and much much more.
You will be very happy with the interior of this car, as the elegance of the Ford Escape still looks great, and is in overall very good condition.
Mechanical:This unit only has 201,610 original and well kept well maintained miles. Based on the CARFAX history report, the car has been regularly serviced: and is only a 1-OWNER Vehicle. This adds to the value of the unit, plus no accident history.(see Full Carfax Vehicle History Report Below)
** However, a few things to note, when we started up the vehicle, it started right up right away, no issues, but upon idle it was making a strange whiny type noise. We are not mechanics, so your guess is as good as ours, however, the car drove fine. As well it had a low idle speed, and may need a tune-up soon!! PLEASE TAKE THESE THINGS INTO MIND BEFORE YOU BID!!!*** CARFAX Even values the unit at: $4,430 Based on Mileage, Condition, and super clean CARFAX History, with Service Records and Maintenance records. The report shows No Accident History on this van. This is truly a one-of-a-kind minivan!SEE CARFAX HISTORY BELOW!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The Car started right up, and ran as mentioned earlier, with a small whiny noise, that seem to die down a bit on acceleration, and also had a low idle speed, and may need a tuneup. It shifted into gear, and drives as it is supposed to. There is no knocking, smoking, or any leaking to mention.
The brakes are firm, and stopped quickly, with no sounds, scrapes, or noises. Brakes were very tight.
The vehicle runs and drives great. This car is definitely in Excellent shape. We make every effort to accurately describe the unit and provide you with all the details you need to make an effective purchasing decision. You will not be disappointed good luck!
This is definitely worth the money, don't lose your opportunity to own a great car at a great price!!

Can anyone bid?
We welcome all registered eBay bidders to participate in our auctions.
Can I see or inspect the vehicle in person?
Prospective bidders are always welcome to come, view, or arrange on site inspections of the vehicle they are interested in BEFORE the close of the auction. We try to be descriptive about the vehicle as possible but issues may be missed, all vehicles are sold as-is please perform your due diligence, check your vehicle before you purchase, if you are unable to inspect in person eBay strongly recommends a third party inspection. Once you have placed a bid we will consider that you have already inspected the vehicle to your satisfaction. Once the auction has ended the vehicle is now considered sold, and we do not permit any post sales inspections at that point. Once vehicle is paid for we assume buyer has inspected the vehicle, and buyer assumes all responsibility for all defects known and unknown. We are not responsible for your vehicle to pass inspections in your home state as it varies from state to state, this also includes Pennsylvania residents as we are not an inspection station. Vehicles may have higher miles thanwhat is shown assome will be drivenfor test drives, demos, transported for pick up or may beowned by the current owner and is their daily vehicle.
What about the vehicle’s history report?
We often use these services to check a vehicles background. Carfax and Autocheck are wonderful services,but they have their limitations. Many times they will show more “owners” than we may state a vehicle has had. This is because they are an information service only. They have never seen the car, owned the car,and have no other information about the car than what is reported from different agencies. All of this information is originally hand entered into their databases at their source and mistakes and inconsistencies will occur! For example when a dealer such as ourselves purchases a vehicle they may pick it up as a new owner when this is of course not the case as dealers are not end users. Also they often contain mileage errors and inconsistencies that appear to make little sense. Just like any computer generated information report you need to know how to read the report & when to read between the lines. It is up to all bidders to purchase their own reports. Having seen thousands of these over the years we can help you understand the information listed in these reports,just ask.
Can you explain your as-is / warranty policy?
All vehicles are being sold as-is, where is with no warranty, expressed or implied. The seller shall not be responsible for correctness of description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty in connection therewith. Any and all descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. Your bid is binding under applicable statute. The buyer assumes all responsibility for all defects known and unknown. The seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs, defects or damages pre-existing or otherwise regardless of any oral or written statements about the vehicle. The buyer has no right of rescission and is not entitled to any compensation for known or unknown, or disclosed, or undisclosed damage or repairs. Do not bid if you are not prepared to conclude your purchase. All information and comments contained within the vehicle listings are deemed reliable,but are not guaranteed. We try very hard to make sure they are as accurate as possible, but as always descriptions are always subject to interpretation, and are for informative purposes.If an option or feature is not listed in the ad or you do not see it in the pictures, then the vehicle most likely does not have that option or feature. Pictures are a part of the descriptions as well. We do not want you to be unhappy with your purchase but at the same time you have to understand what "AS-IS" means. It means sold without warranty - no exceptions. Buyer will pay all costs for any repairs. Most cars are sold at wholesale prices,many way below book prices. Therefore there is minimum profit at best and as such we can not afford to warranty the vehicle as if you had purchased it off a retail lot at full list price. We recommend that all buyers purchase the optional extended warranty (available on most, but not all cars). This will help defray the cost of mechanical repairs in the future. Remember many of these cars are near a decade old or many have in excess of 100,000 miles so they may be new to you but that doesn’t change the fact that they are used cars and repairs can be needed at any time regardless of how short a time period you have owned the car. While we try to service any known defects it is still possible for used vehicles to need service or repairs the first days or weeks of ownership. We are not responsible for your vehicle to pass inspections in your home state as it varies from state to state. We recommend buyer have a third party inspection if buyer is unable to inspect vehicle in person. Here is a list of some major defects that may occur in used motor vehicles. Frame & Body; Frame-cracks, corrective welds, or rusted through, Dog tracks—bent or twisted frame.Engine; Oil leakage, excluding normal seepage, Cracked block or head, Belts missing or inoperable, Knocks or misses related to camshaft lifters and, push rods, Abnormal exhaust discharge.Transmission & Drive Shaft;Improper fluid level or leakage, excluding normal seepage, Cracked or damaged case which is visible, Abnormal noise or vibration caused by faulty, transmission or drive shaft, Improper shifting or functioning in any gear, Manual clutch slips or chatters. Differential; Improper fluid level or leakage excluding normal seepage, Cracked of damaged housing which is visible, Abnormal noise or vibration caused by faulty differential.Cooling System; Leakage including radiator, Improperly functioning water pump. Electrical System; Battery leakage, Improperly functioning alternator, generator, battery, or starter.Fuel System; Visible leakage. Inoperable Accessories; Gauges or warning devices, Air conditioner, Heater & Defroster.Brake System; Failure warning light broken, Pedal not firm under pressure (DOT spec.),Not enough pedal reserve (DOT spec.),Does not stop vehicle in straight line (DOT spec.),Hoses damaged, Drum or rotor too thin (Mfgr. Specs),Lining or pad thickness less than 1/32 inch, Power unit not operating or leaking, Structural or mechanical parts damaged.Steering System;Too much free play at steering wheel (DOT specs.),Free play in linkage more than 1/4 inch, Steering gear binds or jams, Front wheels aligned improperly (DOT specs.), Power unit belts cracked or slipping, Power unit fluid level improper.Suspension System; Ball joint seals damaged, Structural parts bent or damaged, Stabilizer bar disconnected, Spring broken, Shock absorber mounting loose, Rubber bushings damaged or missing, Radius rod damaged or missing, Shock absorber leaking or functioning improperly.Tires= Tread depth less than 2/32 inch, Sizes mismatched, Visible damage.Wheels= Visible cracks, damage or repairs, Mounting bolts loose or missing.Exhaust System= Leakage. All cars are used machines and used machines need general repairs on a regular basis many times without prior warning. This is especially true for name brand highline & exotic vehicles that have more elaborate features and systems. Also repairs are more common on say a 10 year old model car as opposed to a 2 or 3 year old model car since they cost significantly less than a newer car. Obviously the older the car the more possible this is of happening. So this is why we highly recommend again that you purchase this warranty for your own peace of mind and general satisfaction. What you have just read is basically common sense,but there are some people who don’t understand what as is means so this is why we have spelled it out in plain English.
Can I purchase a long term extended warranty?
Most vehicles qualify for a 2 or 3 or 4 year extended warranty plan depending on mileage and age of the vehicle. There are several different plans available for most vehicles. Some vehicles may not qualify for extended warranties. Exotic vehicles, High performance luxury vehicles, antiques vehicles, or certain high mileage vehicles will not qualify for a warranty plan. However most of the vehicles we sell on eBay will qualify for an extended warranty. No matter how comprehensive any warranty is it does not cover routine service or maintenance. Nor does any warranty cover every item on the vehicle. It is merely an insurance policy offered to offset the cost of more significant expenses. Once the auction is over we will go over these details with you if you are interested. All vehicles are sold as-is as stated above. However a select few late model cars may have the remainder of factory warranty and if this is the case that will be clearly listed in the vehicle listing.
Do you end auctions early?
We reserve the right to end any auction early should we deem it necessary. However this is quite rare and occurs in less than 2% of all listings. But occasionally we have to end an auction early because we made an error in the vehicles options, description, warranty, or have a title issue.Vehicles are also sold locally andit will be necessary to end the auction at that time. Also any bid retractions within the last half of the remainder of the auction are subject to be ended early at our discretion. We further reserve the right to refuse the sale of any vehicle to any bidder or buyer at our discretion should we deem it necessary.
What should I expect when buying a used vehicle?
This is a reminder to all bidders. These vehicles are USED vehicles and are not new. Please expect a certain amount of wear,use,and flaws as is standard on ANY used car. All used cars including this one may have dings, nicks, chips, glass marks, fading, scratches, paintwork, accident history, rust, wheel or rim imperfections, or any other issues that are associated with use that is consistent with age and mileage of the vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise noted. We have not inspected the vehicle for safety, mechanical, cosmetic, or any other defects that may exist. We have not performed any kind of maintenance, and may not be aware of damaged or missing parts. We try to take as many photos as possible some scratches and dings may not show up very well due to color and lighting if you are unable to inspect in person we recommend a third party inspection. Any knowledge we have of this vehicle was learned from a brief test drive, when and if the vehicle was drivable.If an option or feature is not listed in the ad or you do not see it in the pictures, then the vehicle most likely does not have that option or feature. Pictures are a part of the descriptions as well.We try to be descriptive about the vehicle as possible but issues may be missed, all vehicles are sold as-is please perform your due diligence, check your vehicle before you purchase, if you are unable to inspect in person eBay strongly recommends a third party inspection. Obviously a car that is 10 years old will show more wear and have more flaws than one that is 2 years old. We will not be responsible if you do not inspect in person. Please have insurance on your car, once it leaves our facility we will not be responsible. Since these vehicles are used,please remember that books,extra keys, remote entry keys,navigation discs,cd cartridges, etc...do not always remain with vehicles throughout their life. We will not be responsible for these minor accessories. These items are all replaceable at any local factory dealer, electronic store,or even on eBay. Once vehicle is paid for we assume buyer has inspected the vehicle, and buyer assumes all responsibility for all defects known and unknown. Vehicles may have higher miles thanwhat is shown at time of deliveryassome will be drivenfor test drives, demos, transported for pick up or may beowned by the current owner and is their daily vehicle.

Fee and Tax Information:.
How do I pay for the vehicle?
The balance of the purchase price MUST be paid for by cash in person, cashiers check (like you would get from most banks & credit unions),or bank wire transfer . We do not accept personal checks,credit cards, paypal, drafts, escrow services, or any other form of payment that is not expressly listed above. Some services such as E-Loan or HSBC place demands on their loans that we can not meet. For example sometimes they require the borrower to only purchase a vehicle in the state they reside and that of course would make it impossible for most bidders &ourselves to comply. So again,we work very hard to make the process go smoothly & quickly just let us know upfront if you have any special needs so we can help out. Please note that you are welcome to have your loan officer contact us to arrange one of the above payments if they have questions or concerns. We realize that different lending institutions have different needs and we are here to work with you in those instances. If you arrive to pick up your vehicle and do not have an acceptable form of payment you will be denied delivery of the vehicle. This means you will have to go home without the vehicle or stay over in MD, until acceptable payment is received. Do not let this happen to you, just follow our simple rules of payment to ensure a smooth delivery of your new vehicle. These are the only forms of payment that we accept, so if they are not acceptable to you then please do not bid. We further reserve the right to refuse the sale of any vehicle to any bidder or buyer at our discretion should we deem it necessary. Final payment must be made within three days of the close of the auction.
Are there any other fees?
We do not collect any taxes from any buyers. We do charge a small $ 150.00 fee to help cover the cost. of processing of all paperwork, vehicle pre-delivery costs, cleanup, FedEx of paperwork, markup of filing a lien, title preparation, DMV document preparation, filling of all necessary State documents, notarization of all required documents, and preparation of vehicle in excess of factory allowance. This includes dealers. Tags, & Registration is charged separately.For our out of state buyers we do not have, nor provide temporary tags, if you want to pick up the vehicle you will have to bring your own tag, or tow the vehicle home. For our instate bidders if you want to pick up your vehicle you will have to register it before you drive off with the vehicle. For all bidders, please have your own insurance on the vehicle before it leaves the lot. So in summary all you pay to us is the winning bid price + the fee.
Do you require a down paymentfrom me?
We require that a down payment be made to secure the transaction by the beginning of the next business day on each vehicle purchased. This means that if you win the auction for any given vehicle at 9PM on a Monday night then the 15% down payment of Sales Price is Due by 9AM the following day (Tuesday) . Each vehicle requires a 15% down payment. So if the vehicle is $3000 x .15 = $450 deposit. We will be happy to work with you depending on each buyers unique situation. After down payment should any buyer fail to make other arrangements with us by 5PM we reserve the right to offer or sell the vehicle to another bidder or buyer as we deem necessary. Also should the buyer fail to make this down payment with us by 9AM we reserve the right to resell the vehicle and cancel the transaction. If buyer does not pay for the vehicle in fullwithin three days we reserve the right to offer or sell the vehicle to another bidder or buyer as we deem necessary.If a buyer pays the down payment,but does not complete the transaction for any other reason,then the down paymentis not refundable and becomes the property of The Car Magician, LLC.
